Usage

To create vocabulary cards in Anki, simply call vexer with a list of
words in the command line or from within a text file:

vexer goofy funky silly

or

vexer my_words.txt

You may need to call sudo vexer to allow administrator permissions.

Note: Make sure Anki is closed or else vexer will give you a locked
database error.

Upon running for the first time, vexer will ask you for your Anki
collection path and the name of the deck the words will be added to.
These will be stored in a config.ini file in the local package
directory which you can edit if these parameters change.

You can also include the number of choices in a card using the -n_c
(ranging from 2-5) paramater as well as the number of definitions for
each part of speech using the -n_d parameter:

vexer goofy funky silly -n_c 3 -n_d 2

vexer stores defaults for these parameters in the config.ini
file.

For information about all parameters run:

vexer --help

Note: Vexer adds the tag “vocabulary“ to the Anki cards. Do not edit
these tags as vexer uses this tag information.
